Please get informed about what patents, proprietary formats and the likes are before bashing. WMV is a proprietary, non-disclosed format from Microsoft, which means that noone can make a codec for it except Microsoft themselves.
The only way to read those on Linux is to install the "w32codecs-all" package from Packman. Those are the MS Windows codecs and, hence, only work on 32bit Linux (using some trickery but that's hidden from you by MPlayer and Xine).
Is there any way these codecs can be made to work on 64 bit SUSE 10 ?
